Abstract:
Objective To compare the efficacy and safety of surgical thrombectomy with those of catheter-directed thrombolysis (CDT) in treating acute lower limb ischemia (ALLI) . Methods The clinical data of 107 patients with ALLI, who underwent CDT or surgical thrombectomy at authors' hospital during the period from January 2012 to December 2017, were retrospectively analyzed. The incidence of complications, mortality, re-intervention rate and amputation rate within 30 days after operation were calculated. Cooley standard of efficacy score was used to assess the clinical curative effect of patients with grade Ⅱ of American Society of Vascular Surgeons (SVS) and International Society of Cardiovascular Surgery (ISCVS) classification of acute limb ischemia. Results A total of 107 patients with ALLI were enrolled in this study. Among them, 59 patients received CDT therapy and 48 patients received surgical thrombectomy. The technical success rate of both groups was 100％. Within 30 days after operation, the incidence of complications in CDT group and surgical thrombectomy group was 11.9％ and 14.6％ respectively, the mortality was 5.1％ and 6.3％respectively, and the re-intervention rate was 17.0％ and 22.9％ respectively, all the differences were not statistically significant (P>0.05) . The amputation rate of patients with grade Ⅱ of SVS/ISCVS ischemia classification in CDT group was 8.9％, which was higher than 2.3％ in surgical thrombectomy group, but the difference between the two groups was not statistically significant (P>0.05) . In patients with grade Ⅱ of ischemia assessed by the ca uses and Cooley curative effect standard at the time of discharge, the cure percentage of embolism-caused ALLI patients in surgical thrombectomy group was 82.5％, which was remarkably higher than 62.8％ in CDT group (P <0.05) . The cure percentage of thrombosis-caused ALLI patients in CDT group was 92.3％, which was strikingly higher than 25.0％ in surgical thrombectomy group (P <0.05) . The difference in the improvement of ischemia, which was assessed by the duration of ischemia and Cooley therapeutic criteria at the time of discharge, between the two groups was not statistically significant (P>0.05) . Conclusion In treating ALLI, no significant differences in curative effect, incidence of postoperative complications and mortality exist between surgical thrombectomy and CDT. The formulation of therapeutic regimen should be based on ischemia grade of SVS/ISCVS, etiology and coexisting underlying diseases.
